IPhone to multiple ATV's

I'll try and explain this as best as possible... We own a funeral home and I want to basically use my iPhone or iPad to stream a live video feed to 2 tvs that are in our overflow rooms. I've given the two apple tvs the same name, but it shows my third ATV with two seperate ATV's with the same name. Any way this can be achieved?
Also, while I'm asking, what is the best way to send a video feed from my iPhone to the ATV? If I mirror my camera, it works fine, but I get the record button and all that stuff... Thanks!

No, not currently possible.

Viewing rented content across multiple ATV

I have multiple ATV if I rent on one can I watch the rented content on any of the ATV or only the one I originally rented the content on?
Thanks for the info.
On a side note I noticed with my Denon AVR I had to change my ATV Digital Dolby setting to "on" (from Auto) for it to recognize the 5.1 bit stream. Otherwise I'm having no issues.

Rentals made on AppleTV cannot be moved to another AppleTV or device.
When Airplay comes out fully it may offer a solution say if you rent on an iPhone or iPad, you could play back the video on any AppleTV.

Simultaneous Airplay on multiple ATV's?

If I have multiple ATVs on my home network, can I play my iTunes playlists and have the output on all ATV connected systems simultaneously? Right now, I've got one ATV - but would like to add more so I can stream music throughout the house. Is this doable?

The Source is iTunes (the mini player because it made for a small screen grab).
Apple's free Remote app lets you control an AppleTV or what is playing in an iTunes library.
http://www.apple.com/apps/remote/
iTunes has the ability to send audio via Airplay to multiple Airplay speakers simultaneously including AppleTVs, Airport Express and 3rd party audio units with Airplay speaker functionality (eg B&W Zeppelin Air).
So if you are near the Computer you just select what is playing, click Airplay icon and multiple audio destinations (+/- computer audio out) and there you go.
With the Remote app you select an iTunes library to control not an AppleTV, select the iTunes audio and then make the speaker choices.
The Music app on an iPhone only allows a single output (Phone or a single Airplay speaker on teh network), unless it's changed in iOS 6 that is.

How do I use your iPhone with multiple iTunes libraries

Hi, I have my music spread out between 3 seperate Itunes libraries on 3 different profiles on my computer. I have the newest generation Ipod Nano, Ipod Shuffle, and Iphone 4s. My Ipod's are both full, so I've decided to start putting music onto my phone. With my Ipod's, I can plug them into one profile on the computer, download the music on the Itunes library that exists on that profile, then do the same with the other profiles with no issue. However when I try to do this with my phone, It asks me to erase the music I have gotten from one Itunes library and sync with the current library, as soon as I plug it in to a different Itunes on one of the other profiles. I have my Iphone configured with the Manually manage music option, and I still haven't found a way to use my Iphone with multiple music libraries. PLEASE HELP

http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12113 - If you use manual syncing, you can sync items from more than one iTunes library to your iPod. (You can sync iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad with only one iTunes library.)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202 - When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPod and iPad.
They seem inconsistent as far as the iPad is concerned but in both articles the iPhone appears to only be able to sync to one library at a time.

Can you run multiple ATV's?

Are there any issues with running multiple ATV's at the same time- playing different content? Also, are you able to broadcast the same content (say from itunes on my Mac) to all ATV's at once (I can see this used at parties where I can have all the TV's on displaying the same video/photo reel). I am hoping there are some freaks like me out there who are planning/have already populated all their TV's with ATV's.
Also, will the digital audio out work without HDMI being plugged in (in case I want to use an ATV as an audio-only receiver to an amp?)

I have to ATVs setup and it is actually quite amazing how you can play different content on each of them from the same library... wicked. I cannot attest to streaming video since 4.2 is still in beta and iTunes from the desktop is not streaming video to ATV, but audio works great. Apple is really onto something here...

AirPlay to multiple atv's at once??

I have some simple video content (Keynote presentation) thank I need to display from a MBP or iPad to several projectors at once. Rather than dragging hundreds of feet of cable plus dealing with video splitters, it would be nice to use project/mirror via AirPlay from the computer/iPad to multiple ATVs at once. Is this possible with AirPlay or any other technology? My guess is probably no on AirPlay but the possibilities for this functionality would be huge.

No, not currently possible.

Playing music on iPhone 5, multiple tracks lose audio partway into the song

When playing music on my iPhone 5, multiple tracks lose audio partway into the song, even though the track is still playing.
I have tried re-syncing music to the phone several times. This will fix the problem for some tracks, but then re-create the problem in other tracks. Also, I have switched from syncing the entire library to only syncing a few playlists at a time. What can I do?

Hi Descending!
If your songs are playing correctly in iTunes on your computer, then it sounds like you will want to restore your iPhone using this article:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If the songs do not play correctly in iTunes on your computer, then you will want to recreate your library by following the steps in this article:

IPhone to multiple Airport Express/ATVs

before the latest iOS upgrade to my iPhone I could stream to multiple Airport Expresses from my iPhone at one time. Now I can't select more than one at a time. Can anyone help?

My question is will the Airport Express units ethernet ports have a live signal that wired Macs can plug into to join the network like a router?
Yes.

How do i sync iphone with multiple macs? and few questions

Hi
I would appreciate if anyone would help me.
1. I would like to know how to sync my iphone with different macs. I have a macbook 13 and a macbook 15 and would like to use BOTH to be able to transfer data without losing them. (address, apps, photos and music)
would like to use this feature if I were to be suddenly on a trip and a friend would like to share some of his files (audio, apps, photos..etc)
2. is it possible to use internet tethering on multiple macs or example a "spontanious" mac? (ex. if I were suddenly to use internet through usb on a friends mac while we were on a trip but it were programmed on my mac at home)
3. my internet tethering is only working on one mac which I usually use to sync everything... i tried just using tethering through usb on the other mac wihtout any sync but somehow it didnt work... usually i just plug and play and start using firefox... by automatic detection...
4. is there also a way to copy files from iphone onto a mac which would not be one of my libraries?
5. why cant i use iphone like the ipod as a disk use?
I am aware that these things are somewhat possible because i have read quiet a few artivles but they are sadly enough not so current... any help appreciated.

#1: As has been said, you can't get around it. An iPhone cannot be synched to more than one computer for any media content (it can be for contacts and calendar information, I believe).
#4: You can transfer items purchased from the iTunes Store to another computer but only if you disallow synchronization and authorize that computer to your iTunes Store account. There are third-party utilities that can transfer non-iTunes Store content.
#5: there is no disk mode in an iPhone and no way to enable one, at least not in the sense of disk mode in earlier iPods. There are third-party apps that allow some file transfer to and from an iPhone.
I can't help with tethering questions.

How to use iPhone with multiple computers on iTunes 11?

Both of my computers are Windows 7. I try to manage my music and videos on both iTunes. I used to be easy, like you just check the "Manually manage music and videos" square, and everything is fine... But after I update to iTunes 11, it just doesn't work. There is no resulting dialog box coming up where I can click "OK" after I checked square, and no matter I click "apply" below or "done" above, the iTunes asks to erase and sync with the iPhone. After it syncs, the "Manually manage music and videos" is checked. But if I move to another computer another iTunes, then it says I'm already syncing with one iTunes, and it needs to erase and sync with my iPhone again... and of course, the "Manually manage music and videos" is unchecked on this iTunes... If I try to check that on this one.. it's the same story happened before... Basically, there is just no way I can use one iPhone on two iTunes 11, is it?

Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entires and import the local content you have on that box.

Multiple ATVs for one Itunes account

Trying to find out if I can use, say, 4 ATVs to stream the exact song or show from one computer (one itunes account) to multiple locations? Thanks!

It's not clear from your question whether you are asking about playing the same songs or videos on all the Apple TV's in sync or just being able to access the files to play.
The current situation is.
You can use home sharing to access files from one iTunes account on multiple Apple TV's. The only restriction here is your network speed.
In addition, using Airplay you can currently play a song and use multiple Apple TV's as remote speakers. This works very well in my experience and the synchronisation is very good. I don't see any problem with doing this on 4 Apple TVs unless you have a very slow network.
It is expected that Airplay will soon work with video as well. It seems that this will require an update to the Apple TV firmware and it's fairly likely that this will happen soon. Obviously due to video using more bandwidth, you are more likely to run into problems with the network speed if you are trying to involve 4 Apple TV's than you would with music.

Household of iPhones -- How to Sync multiple iPhones with Multiple Computer

We just purchased two iPhones, one for me and one for my wife. Awesome so far, activation was a breeze, no problem getting on our wifi network. Now we're choosing what to sync. We have two computers -- one macpro for me, a powerbook g4 for my wife. We keep all of our iLife stuff on my computer (all itunes songs, all iphoto pictures, etc.). We keep our respective e-mail, contacts, and calendars on our respective computers.
How should synching work? For me, it's just my computer so no issue. But for my wife, I seem to need to sync once with my computer for music/pictures, then once with her computer for her mail/contacts/calendar. Is this possible?

Hey W.Scheinler,
It is possible to sync the phones from multiple computers, for example you can sync your music from your Mac Pro and Contacts from the Powerbook G4.
This article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305741 will give more detailed information.

Syncing Contacts with Google to iPhone 5s - multiple sets

Hello ... for some reason when I sync my Google contacts to my iPhone 5s I get multiple sets. Not for all contacts but for a large majority. Help!

I have the same problem. It seems like itunes (on windows) has a problem to sync the google contacts (address book) with my iphone. The first time i tried, it worked (all contacts from Google contacts were transferred to my iphone) but the next time nothing happened, nothing changed in the iphone contacts neither in the Google contacts (updates were made in both the iphone and goggle contacts). Any idea anyone?

Iphone remove multiple photos

how do you remove large amounts of photos from iPhone? I see no way of doing this from iPhone itself..
and when I connect iPhone to my MacBook Pro I cannot see it in Finder or anywhere else (********)
here
http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/05/28/how-to-delete-old-photos-from-iphone-cam era-roll/
it says you can do it by hitting "share" button in camera roll, but I don't see how you can select multiple photos then delete them...
my gosh, will I have to connect the Iphone to a windows machine because I can't do this with mac OS?
I don't know what this says about mac OS, but it's not something very smart or practical at all...
I simply cannot understand at all the mac os rationale for this.. either the iPhone or my Nikon camera, when I connect them to the mac I cannot see them in either the Finder, in Adobe Bridge, in iPhoto, or any other program.. this is nothing short of idiotic -- and a huge pain in the ***..

Well, as I am sure you found out, if you want to delete multiple photos while on your phone, you go to the camera roll...accessed by opening the camera app, hitting the button on the bottom left that lets you see the photos you have taken and then hitting the 'camera roll' button on the upper left. Now you will see a grid of your photos. The "share" button is the one on the bottom middle that is a box (or rectangle) with an arrow going from left to right. Click on this and then you will see the top of the screen will have the heading, "Select Photos". Just click on the photos you want to delete. It will highlight them and give them a red check in the lower right hand corner of each chosen image. When you are happy with your selection, press the 'delete' button on the bottom right.
For deleting more than 20 - 30 images at once, this method is just SOOO annoying and inefficient to me. The only other ways I have found (within OSX) is to go to iphoto while your phone is hooked up to your computer and if all your photos on your iPhone have been imported, a button in the middle of the window of the iPhoto app will say "Remove Photos from [your phone's name]" You can click on this and it will delete ALL of the photos on your phone. It is all or nothing because there is no option (that I can find...or that there is any documentation to date) while in OSX that allows you to select photos and delete them in large groups or specifically. It is ridiculous.
Otherwise, and there is documentation on other threads, you can hook your iPhone up to a pc and there is a program that (however equally annoying) should automatically pop up (camera and scanner wizard) and you can choose like you should be able to choose in OSX, large groups of photos to delete.
Likely one other way is to access the iphone like a hard drive (also through pc) and just delete the files in the explorer (= pc "finder"). I have no clue why this is so difficult since the main purposes of an iPhone or the main uses of an iPhone are pretty straight forward: (1) use as a phone, (2) use as a camera (3) use as a iPod & (4) use for Facebook (ha)...
In any case, if anyone can enlighten me further and better my info, I would be much obliged because this present methodology is just not intuitive or, more importantly, offering a simple usability feature that should exist.

Airtunes iPhone and Multiple Airport Express

Hi,
I have 2 airport express's connected to speakers....can my iPhone connect to multiple AE's with AirTunes in the iPod mode?

I don't think it can be done simultaneously if that's your question. However, you can let the iPhone arbitrate the wifi connection to any one of them at a time.
